the team with fewer players has again used all eligible shooters

The Toronto Blue Jays have selected Jeff Hoffman with their first pick in the 2014 Major League Baseball Draft. Toronto selected Hoffman with the ninth overall pick, two selections before they selected Kennesaw State catcher Max Pentecost with the 11th overall draft pick. A 64" right-handed pitcher out of East Carolina, the 21-year-old Hoffman is a long-term prospect as he recently underwent Tommy John surgery. His talent level, though, is believed to be much higher than his draft slot, with multiple sources projecting he would have been a top-five pick if not for the surgery. The ninth pick for the Jays is protected meaning the team will receive a compensatory pick (10th overall) in the 2015 Draft should they fail to come to a contract agreement with Hoffman before the signing deadline. Pentecost, also 21, was the MVP of the Cape Cod League. At 62" and 190 lbs. he posted an impressive .962 OPS according to MLB.com, who had him ranked 19th overall in their 2014 draft rankings. The Jays held the 11th overall draft pick as compensation for their failure to sign 2013 first-round pick Phillip Bickford. Should the team fail to sign Pentecost they will not receive a compensatory pick in 2015. Toronto was also able to snag a highly-ranked prospect with their second-round pick. The Jays selected 18-year-old right-hander Sean Reid Foley with the 49th overall pick. The high-school senior from Florida was ranked 18th overall by MLB.com, slotting in higher than Pentecost in the sites 2014 draft rankings. Former Blue Jays first-round selection Tyler Beede was selected 14th overall by the San Francisco Giants. The Jays originally selected Beede with the 21st overall pick in 2011. The two sides were unable to come to a contract agreement, however, sending Beede to Vanderbilt University and awarding the Jays the 22nd overall pick in 2012. Toronto would select Marcus Stroman with the compensatory pick. Cheap Air Max 90 2019 .

Kerry wants to answer your emails at cmonref@tsn.ca. Good day, Kerry! I was watching the Panthers/Capitals shootout on Tuesday night and I got to thinking about what was going to happen once each bench had all been used up. Low and behold it all worked out fine and they were able to go through their roster again after everyone had a shot, but what if someone couldnt shoot before the end of the first go through? Say perhaps that someone had been given a game misconduct, left hurt, or the less likely scenario of playing one player short for salary cap purposes. What would happen after Team A had let 17 shooters go and their 18th player was unavailable? Would they be able to go back to Player 1 while Team B was forced to use player 18? This seems like a lopsided solution if it is the case! What is your interpretation of this rule? I sure hope that if the shootout ends up staying for much longer, we have a lot more games that run through this many shooters! Cheers, Corey Corey: The record setting 20-round shootout win by Roberto Luongo and the Florida Panthers over Braden Holtby and the Washington Capitals was highly entertaining for sure. We saw fantastic saves by both goalies (sometimes with a little help from the iron) along with clutch goals scored by players of both teams in order to keep the shootout going. With the rally caps on backwards, both teams went completely through the batting order and two players shot twice before Nick Bjugstad bested Alex Ovechkin in the bottom of the 20th. Unless the outcome is determined by the first three shooters all remaining eligible players from each team can participate in the sudden death format. No player may shoot twice until everyone who is eligible has shot. All players are eligible unless they are serving a ten-minute misconduct, or have been assessed a game misconduct or match penalty.dddddddddddd. When a goalkeeper has been assessed a misconduct, the player designated to serve the misconduct penalty becomes ineligible for the shootout. If the misconduct is assessed to the goalkeeper during the course of the shootout, the player designated to serve the misconduct must be a player who has yet to shoot and thus becomes ineligible. To clarify, any player that was serving a minor, double minor or major penalty when the overtime period expired is eligible to participate in the shootout. You might also have noticed that prior to the start of the 19th round in the Panthers-Caps shootout, referees Tim Peel and Rob Martell took a moment to confer with the penalty time keeper to make sure every eligible player from both teams had taken a shot. This speaks to your question Corey concerning a potential imbalance of eligible players, which I will now address. Corey, your concern regarding the unfairness attributed to a possible numerical difference between the two rosters is clarified in rule 84.4. “If, because of injury or penalty, one team has fewer players eligible for the shootout, both teams may select from among the players who have already shot. This procedure would continue until the team with fewer players has again used all eligible shooters.” This is interpreted to mean that if Team A has only 16 eligible shooters compared to Team B’s 18 eligible shooters, once they enter the 17th round both teams are allowed to select a player that has already participated in the shootout. Team B is therefore not required to utilize the 17th and 18th shooters on their depth chart. Given the entertainment value that the shootout provides, I don’t think we have to worry about it being discontinued any time soon, if ever. ' ' '
